    I just wasn’t impressed. It was just mid. Nothing special. I expected the pasta to be amazing but it all stuck together and needed seasoning.

    While visiting in Louisville we decided to give Monk’s a try. It had great food and service. The risotto was outstanding and steak cooked perfectly. Great wine list and also tried their Old Fashioned which I really enjoyed. Definitely recommend.

    We had incredible service and the food was phenomenal. My favorites were the fried calamari, meatballs, and the mushrooms! Also, the cannolini dessert was perfectly balanced and such a great end to the meal. We cannot wait to go back and try more of the menu!
